You know,

This guy that sponsors our race series down here had some KILLER deals on Smittybuilt winches. If you give him a call you might still get it although it is after the holidays.

For some reason his site is broken and the add to cart is not there, but If I recall a Smittybuilt 8k winch was $285, and the 10 or 12k was around $350.
